Having taken a quick trip back up to the common room to drop off her things, Kurumi hurried back down to the Transfiguration practice room where she expected Daichi to already be there waiting for her. There were two things on the Gryffindor's mind right now and both were a little...perplexing.

1) How was she going to help Daichi get over his fear of fire? He was petrified of a candle's flame and those were harmless. Still, she needed to do this. She couldn't keep holding his hand for many reasons, and not just because she would be graduating this term. HE needed it. It would help him...heal. And everyone deserved that.

2) Well...maybe she wouldn't have to talk about that. Maybe Daichi will have forgotten about, erm, that... The Gryffindor was surprised that Daichi didn't know...especially since it seemed like everyone knew.

Poor Daichi...this was probably going to...tear him apart...and she really hoped that he didn't hate her for it. She would hate to lose him too because of this...because of what SHE had done.

Stepping into the room, she saw that he was already there and she gave him a cheerful wave. "Hey Daichi, you ready to get started?"
